Café des Délices Perfume Review | The Magic of Coffee & Amber Scents – ScentGrade

Café des Délices Perfume – A Mediterranean Moment in a Bottle

There’s something irresistible about the aroma of freshly brewed coffee — warm, comforting, and indulgent. Now imagine capturing that blissful moment in scent. That’s the magic of Café des Délices by Maison Mataha, a 2025 launch that translates the soul of a morning café into a luxurious Oriental Vanilla Extrait de Parfum.

At ScentGrade, where niche fragrances meet modern discovery, we explore the story, craftsmanship, and sensory pleasure of this perfume — a true invitation to slow down and savor life’s sweetest pause.

The Inspiration Behind Café des Délices

Inspired by Tunisia’s famous seaside café overlooking the Mediterranean, Café des Délices evokes quiet mornings, golden pastries, and sunlight glimmering off the water.

Perfumer Vincent Ricord crafted this scent as an olfactory madeleine — a tender balance between comfort and desire. It opens with a creamy burst of café crème, melts into warm biscuit and vanilla, and lingers as a soft cloud of musk and tonka.

This fragrance isn’t loud or showy — it’s refined indulgence, the scent of serenity and sensuality intertwined.

How It Smells

Café des Délices opens like a gentle morning — smooth, creamy coffee swirling with the sweetness of a freshly baked biscuit. As it warms on skin, velvety vanilla and tonka unfold, adding depth and coziness. Finally, a powdery musk finish leaves a comforting, skin-like warmth that lasts all day.

Overall Impression: Warm, gourmand, and subtly seductive — a modern take on coffee perfume that balances sweetness with elegance.
